The Drop

Grab your best purple suit, folks, because the 3rd Street Saints are back in business and ready to embark upon a dangerous mission through fire, brimstone, and a legion of tormented souls. Yes, this is really happening. Saints Row IV: Re-Elected and Saints Row: Gat out of Hell are on the way to PlayStation.

For those of you that missed the original Saints Row IV, Re-Elected brings the super-powered open-world to PS4 with all the DLC packed right in. The Boss has been elected as President of the United States, but a brutal alien invasion has trapped him (or her) inside a computer simulation. Free Boss from the simulation, save planet Earth, and be stylish as all get-out.

And following these sweeping events, Saints Row: Gat out of Hell is a standalone expansion that finds the Boss unwillingly engaged to the Devil’s daughter. Time for Gat and Kinzie to plow through the depths of the nightmarish underworld and get him out.

And that’s just the start of this week’s new games. Head below for the full list, and enjoy the Drop!

Saints Row IV: Re-Elected
PS4 — Digital, Retail
After saving the world from a terrorist attack, the Boss of the 3rd Street Saints is elected to become President of the United States. Things go reasonably well until an alien warlord named Zinyak attacks the White House and abducts his entire cabinet. Now stuck inside a reality bending simulation, the President and the Saints fight to save themselves, Earth, and the entire galaxy…
Saints Row: Gat out of Hell
PS4, PS3 — Digital (PS3 Version at Retail)
It all started with an innocent little birthday party. Because nothing terrible ever happened at a birthday party. And yet, here we are, gazing into the gaping, flaming maw of an inter-planar portal to Hell. The Boss of the 3rd Street Saints has been taken by Satan, and it’s up to Johnny Gat and Kinzie to get him back. That means otherworldly powers, sin-inspired weaponry, legendary allies, and also a musical number. Buckle up.
Splice
PS4, PS3 — Digital (Cross Buy)

The team spent a lot of time making sure the controls feel as intuitive as possible. Simply roll around your controller to let the universe move, or lay back and let the world take you over.

  • Saints Row!

  • I never got SR IV before. Is it worth it?

  • Nothing good for vita -_-

  • Got my SRIV preordered. Can’t wait to play through again. It’s such a hilarious game, and a lot of fun. It’s gonna be tough to force myself to wait to play the expansion after the main campaign. I may not have the willpower to do it.

  • Resident evil!! i need that game =)

  • When is Grim Fandango out?.

  • Is there any chances we can pre-order Gat out of hell expansion without the remastered game? I already got the base game on PS3 and finished it. Please provide me with the expansion link if possible as I don’t want to miss the pre-order bonus :/

  • Where Is the 10% off code and 5 days added to psn membership. January is all most up still nothing promise has been given

  • Resident Evil (Remake) in my opinion is the best old school RE game, even the zombies alone are scary to face.

  • I also can’t wait for RE Revelations 2 because Claire returns for the first time in a entirely new RE game.

  • Psyched to play Resident Evil again! It’s a masterpiece!

    Now I just hope they remaster Resident Evil Zero and make it co-op..

  • Any chance of some Resident Evil demo?

  • Ready for Citizens of Earth and Resident Evil!!

    Now I’m ready to see Final Fantasy 12, Fear Effect 1 & 2 & the Clocktower series.

  • Also any update on the money back from the false advertisements for the PS Vita?

  • will you guys be at PAX South? looking at the schedule the only real Sony presence is SOE. I was looking forward to seeing some form of representation from PSBlog and Kinda Funny (former beyond team) but haven’t heard anything and the event is next week.

  • Citizens of Earth is the game i have been waiting for all month.

  • Evolve digital preorder when will that be live?

  • Such a great week. Been waiting for Atlus to release Citizens of Earth for a while, but RE HD for even longer. Both day one buys!

  • Any idea when La-Mulana EX will drop?

  • a question for the one who knows it…
    normally if you own a stand-alone dlc and the base game you get a bonus in either one of them or both (like with infamous first light you can play as delsin in the arena).
    My question is, what bonus do you get when you own both saints row re-elected/4 and gat out of hell?

  • Big week!

    I have a physical copy of SR4: Re-Elected + Gat Out of Hell preordered, Resident Evil HD, and I’m totally going to pick up Citizens of Earth, had my eye on that since the Kickstarter.

  • Hey Ryan,Just wanted to ask is Lego batman 3 : beyond gotham is from the weekly deals of this week?:)

  • i’m confused about this.

    is Gat Out Hell going Be Ps3 digital? or am i going have to buy the disk?

  • for saints row will i be able to import my save from the ps3 version to the ps4?

  • More ps1 classics please:

    Die hard trilogy
    Diablo

  • Any word on bigfest release date yet i can’t wait for it

  • Hopefully this week Resonance of Fate will come to PSNow.

    Also, hoping next week we’ll get Apotheon out.

  • Got Atelier Ayesha Plus last week and Neptunia next week, should be good :). This week isn’t for me though

  • No cross buy for Citizens of Earth? ):

    And who is publishing Grim Fandango?

  • @ Kid Loser RIGHT?! Was hoping for Apotheon this week!!!!! Please Sony!

  • Does Citizens of Earth work with the PS TV?

  • PRICES. PRICES. PRICES. basically a useless post otherwise. Even the descriptions of the games dont give a clear idea what the game is like.

  • when are we going to see a Burnout game on the vita?

  • Resident Evil HD and Ironclad Tactics for me. Nice drop!

  • Looking forward to picking up Saints Row IV: Re-Elected Tuesday and might pick up Citizens of Earth if I like what I see online.

  • @32

    Right?! All Ryan has to do is a little research and put relevant info like PRICING. It can’t be that hard. And you notice when someone asks a question on a game and he never knows anything. Even the simplest of questions. Some social media specialist… But then again, he came from ign. So maybe he is a big troll like all the “editors” over there.

  • I recall when Citizens of Earth was asking for funding. I recall being really interested so it’s nice to see its actually out now. Im going to have to wait for prices & peoples impressions before ordering however. I really hope it’s good since I’m a huge earthbound fan.

    Other then that I got Resident Evil pre-ordered and am pretty excited about that (Sony please bring the RE Japanese PS4 theme to NA, PLEASSSEEE)

  • The first episode of Life is Strange comes out on the 30th. Is there going to be a pre-order for the episode and season pass?

  • Any word on Broforce?

  • how much will Citizens of Earth cost?

  • #DonaldDuckGoinQuackersPS2onPSstore

  • Sometimes it’s nice to have a week with nothing personally interesting to buy, lets me save up for the ones I do want.

    I must say as well, that PS credit card has been great with giving me PSN gift cards. I don’t think I’ve actually spent ‘real’ money on a game since before November, just using my points :) Pretty sweet

  • Resident Evil!!! I still can’t believe they remastered my favorite survival horror game of all time and on top of that they priced at $20. Hats off Konami!!!

  • Nothing for me this week but waiting on Dying Light next week

  • are you guys gonna put Evolve on psn store for pre order it releases feb 10th come on and update the store with that already!!!!! i dont want to get a physical copy its so pointless

  • Guess the moderators don’t like me :( I shared a awesome Google Calendar anyone can subscribe to to keep up to date with PlayStation games such as PS4, PS3 and PS Vita game’s. If anyone is interested PM on PSN. Or Tweet me. Same username.

  • Ryan Clements,

    Can you please check with your people at Sony and find out when they are sending out the 10% off codes to use on PSN due to the outage.

    Thanks!

  • Still waiting on Helldivers…

    I’m guessing it won’t make its Summer 2014 release date, huh?

  • When are we going to get our 10% discount code? I am still holding off buying anything from the store – don’t want to order some new games just to receive the 10% a day later.

    But then, knowing this Ryan Clements, I am not expecting any answer BEYOND the first 10 comments, nor any answer with actually useful information.

  • ResEeeeee! Also preordered Grim Fandango Remastered.
